Gnats are not really a problem, besides annoying, I found adding a 2inch layer or more of diatomaceous earth on the top of your medium for a few days seems to kill the larva, do not water when the DE is on the medium, maybe try bottom watering if you really need. Once done vac off the DE carefully.
My initial response to that "pest" was root aphids and they fucking suck. I'd look up the affects and see if any of your plant leaves are showing signs of that.
Some good ipm you can do is neem drenches for your soil, sulfur sprays while the lights are off. Neem(oil based) sprays if you aren't making concentrates. Essential oil/castile soap sprays. Theres a few very pricey biological/bacteria products out there that are supposed to work well on pests. The ladies also love sulfur and neem(worms go crazy for it) so realistically its a win win.

gnats aren't a problem, their larvae are, they nibble at the roots and an infestation that's not kept in check could end up costing you 20%of your yield.

No problem. Just 20%. :micdrop:

Wow that's new to me! Idt I've ever heard that.
True as most pest "infestation" would cost you, but you're also probably dealing with a combination of issues you're not properly dealing with at that point. From "noticing a few gnats" I didn't really get that idea, but also followed up with a solution for the gnat problem. I've dealt with "a few gnats" and this method works very well but it's also never cost me any noticeable % in the past 12yrs. If you have any type of infestation you should always be staying up on proper ipm, and switching up techniques every other spray.
Having healthy plants in a balanced soil also plays a huge role, staying up on foliar feeds, key micronutrients keeps the ladies strong.

The question is, where is the line between a few gnats and an infestation? The answer is it's not a dividing line. It's a timeline.

You notice a few gnats, and it's "not much of a problem", then a few weeks later your buds have grown fully and should be starting to swell so you're thinking "oh, it's just a few more weeks" and you put up with it. But in those "just a few more weeks" your buds aren't really swelling up like they could have, because their entire system is stressed out by these larvae nibbling at their roots.

Imagine the difference between larvae nibbling away at roots, and roots thriving and soil teeming with drain bugs (athetha coraria or something along the likes, good stuff!), there lies your 20%.


Those plants look nice n frosty!

@LizardWizard - Aah yes, I can see waiting a few weeks in flower becoming a problem. Especially early on, very vital time. Once again I guess my procedures cut these problems out so I've never dealt with a full blown infestation of gnats and honestly don't know anyone who has. The diatomaceous earth coverage on medium should be pretty beneficial for larve and I only use it when gnats are around, otherwise idk what do use it for, once its wet its useless. Once again I can't stress how much I love the neem drenches for soil. The worms love it, pests hate it, also allows plants to get a lil more defense up themselves, and it gives your cannabis a different funk compared to most ppl's flavors.

Thanks, looking forward to checking out/contributing to this thread more.

Much appreciated HFM
Yes everything is kept in house.
The terp profile on some of those jars is out of control, especially the runtz n this pure sativa "punta".

Oh yea tried making some gummies with some of the mixed concentrates that didn't have the hottest nose on them. First batch was 7 grams wax - roughly 250 gummies, came out amazing. Got mixed reviews so I ate 5, got visuals, waaay too high, had to go to bed, some people's tolerances are wild. Anyways second batch must have not followed the recipe bcuz they came out hella thick n goopy, maybe I was slower pouring them, idk.
Here's from the first batch


Anyways here's last season for all the talking. Any of y'all ferment your piss? Supposedly the npk is around 11:2:4

Damn that sauce looks crazy good.


Back when I played a ton of online poker I had a few solid pee bottles, if only I had been growing at the time :lol:



Does anybody know what causes these U shaped leaves? I’ve seen one or two before but this Afghan has a lot of them. And Laoberry right before transplant.

@Aka
The color looks good, but maybe you could bump up nitrogen a tiny bit? Try foliar feeds while your lights are on, if your temps are dialed in they should uptake fine. Watch for dark green color so you're not over feeding them.

Not sure your feed, water schedule, or your set up.

My intial thought was it looks a lil thirst, maybe needs a lil nitrogeen or is out growing it's pot. Its good to let your top few inches dry out but honestly I do light waters everyday, so the plant doesn't enter stress mode looking for water.

Sounds interesting, "wood" it affect the pump any? Or I guess you could add it with the tea bag. How much does it control smell?

The backyard and basement usually smell rowdy during ferment/teas, it's not an everyday thing so I've gotten used to it.

You can cut your pee by half with hard wood ash then mix 1:10 with water.I don't know about sending through a pump.You shouldn't have any smell really with this recipe.

thats a fine frosty project there hommie i bet i will bring you lots of good times

Biochar might make an interesting ash substitute.

So what a seasoned stoner does is take an early sample, go to put it in the drying spot and find the early sample they put there a couple days ago.
:facepalm:
So yeah this one is ready to try lol.

Biochar might for sure,There's something to do with the ash not letting the ammonia off gas.Something like that,it's super late for me,my brain isnt firing really.My first round of insomnia though I will look into that.We used a lot of noc'd char for guerrilla stuff.Worked well though,really well.

Woah.
Yeah that'll be coming down in the next few days. It's the last of a group of fuck ups from some unfamiliar soil. She's tiny but worthy of a save. Damn strong trying one hit. No bad for no cure. Has the fruity sweet tart of the Huckmonkey with a strong coffee skunk of the Darkslide. Really heavy even though that piece is really to the early side. Maybe a touch of zing. :lol:

Man it's good to have my Shammy back.
:awesomenod:

I did that cross a few years back, but only grew a few out. They were killer too but this one warrants revisiting. Massive pulsing body high but oddly no anxiety.
I popped a few from another temporarily shelved project the other day too. Goes back further than this cross. I took the Huckleberry Soda male (Don) I used to make the Huckmonkey to a nice American Pie mother. That one had a nice sweet onion flavor with berry undertones. Sounds kinda weird but it was addictive lol. Hoping to see that pheno again.
